There are plenty of things I would, and do, pay monthly for. An app still isn't one of them.

My point is there's opportunity everywhere and people these days think it's only in software.

Exactly. Two examples for inspiration: Manpacks and Candy Japan (the owner is on HN). There is also a startup based out of Mountain View that delivers new games and puzzles for kids every month, but I cannot remember the name of it.

Do you, by any chance, knows who is the owner of those? i would like to be able to contact him directly.
